Tricky! I’d say Calista, but Valentina is lovely as well!

I would say [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]! I think it’s a very pretty name! But also [name_f]Calista[/name_f] is hard for me to pronounce! I don’t know why! So that’s just a personal choice for me since I’m sure most people don’t have a problem with it! Haha :joy:

[name_f]Calista[/name_f] is pretty, but I prefer the rich, elegant sound and feel of [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]. :rose:

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]! It’s so elegant and I love that it’s used in many languages. Plus it has great nickname options.

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]! :orange_heart:

I prefer [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]!

Given the current spellings, [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] - though if it were spelled [name_f]Callista[/name_f], I would go with that. :grin:

Ooooh this is a tough one! [name_f]Calista[/name_f] might win if it were spelled with two ls, but with this spelling I prefer [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]. I think lots of people would automatically spell [name_f]Calista[/name_f] with two lls which would be annoying to correct all the time.

The classic romance of [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] can’t really be beaten I think!

Both names are truly stunning though.

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]. [name_f]Calista[/name_f] to me is just Flockart.

Super tough for me as I have both in my top 10. [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] ranks higher on my list because I love the overall combo more, but without knowing the middles it’s much harder for me to pick. Today I’d say [name_f]Calista[/name_f], but tomorrow my answer could be different. :smiley:

Calista’s one of my favourites! It’s strong, beautiful (literally), feisty, different, and interesting. Plus there’s lots of great nn options.

I love the sqeet but sassy Calista!!

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] !

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f]

The middles we’re considering are [name_f]Calista[/name_f] [name_f]Roisin[/name_f] and [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] [name_f]Callisto[/name_f]. I think we are leaning towards [name_f]Valentina[/name_f]. I’m not a fan of the nickname [name_f]Callie[/name_f], and [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] flows better with our last name, which is similar to De [name_f]Rosa[/name_f].

Plus, I tested the names out on my coworkers and was surprised when multiple people heard [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Calista[/name_f].

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] is an absolutely stunning name!

[name_f]Valentina[/name_f] has a romantic feel. I like it :heart:

I like [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] but love [name_f]Calista[/name_f]! It has a je ne sais quoi appeal to me and I always wonder why it’s never been very popular. It’s sweet but energetic and dignified.
